wauko was proud to Gold sponsor the IFPA Southern Africa Conference on 17-18 August 2022. The purpose of the conference was to network, reconnect, and meet in person with fellow fresh produce industry participants, whilst learning more about the challenges facing the fresh produce supply chain. The event was a profound success and the wauko stand was very well attended, supported by us providing the best coffee at the event in association with GANGSTAR CAFÉ (https://gangstarcafe.com/).
